[QUOTE=Notanything;52085592]I haven't gotten a chance to experience the Henchman thing yet, but is it looking like it's going to be Overkill's version of what the "Better bots" mod does, or would you say Better Bots still makes bots more effective? At least in terms of combat efficiency.[/QUOTE]
Better bots make the bots straight up better
the henchman thing's pretty different imo
[QUOTE=TWKUK;52085581]I was waiting for someone to comment on the pencil mod. honestly like 80% of OVKs development strategy now seems to be "wait for someone to make a mod with a good idea, and then copy it in an underwhelming and subpar form"[/QUOTE]
because no one was asking for a pencil melee eons before that mod existed

TIL modders invented pencils

well they used to be straight up better
until someone removed LoS check for the bots melee and intimidate cops stuff.
now they just melee thin air and shout at walls. maybe the payday gang is going senile or something
[QUOTE=DeadMansChest;52085262]If you used it during the april fools update, that's why.
Several guns, mainly pistols, were forced an attachment on them that'd give them ricocheting bullets.
When OVK undid the update, they simply deleted the forced attachment out of existence.
Since the attachment no longer existed, any gun that had the ricocheting bullets attachment would end up getting deleted by the inventory cleanup process that happens upon loading the game[/QUOTE]
Any mods should've also been refunded to inventory.
in case you were curious,

What are the stats for the pen? I imagine it's probably a nova shank copy.
To be honest the optimal thing now would be to have 3 players and a bot. Just having an AI bot give all the players extra health/armor is way better than what a pubby could offer the same 3 dudes.
I'm trying to decide what DLC I should get for this game. I've decided to get all of the character packs, but I don't know which heist and weapon packs I should get since I hear many of those are hit or miss.

That sucks, I opened the game on April Fools just to add the beanies to my inventory, didn't even play any heists. Any hope of them doing something about it, or should I just get a new one?

they said they fixed it but only for people that haven't played between when april fools ended to when they fixed it
It's funny how the Overkill website directly copies updates from the Steam page, so you get the link filter (i.e. link to [url]https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?url=http://www.overkillsoftware.com/games/kento/[/url] rather than [url]http://www.overkillsoftware.com/games/kento/[/url]) even when you're already on the OVK site.

They're gone from your save data forever, just get new ones
The first thing I tried was giving bots incendiary weapons.
It didn't work.

there is a god
bots will shoot bullets from any weapon you give them.
even rocket launchers
and the OVE9000 saw. (which looks fucking hilarious)
Holy shit some of these boosts are god damn ridiculous.
My Chains wouldn't use the DMR CAR-4 I gave him. I'll test more later though.
Wonder if weapon stats matter here or it's all cosmetic.
I'm looking through the tips, and it seems like a few of mine made it in. Some of them weren't even edited at all, so that's neat.

All cosmetic.
[QUOTE=brenz;52086334]All cosmetic.[/QUOTE]
Not even between weapon classes? ARs vs Shotguns?
[QUOTE=brenz;52086334]All cosmetic.[/QUOTE]
Not true, NPC weapons have different base damage, magazine size, and ROF.
The Reinfeld deals 450 damage right now, so you should probably abuse that.
somebody do the crime spree with me i'm a lonely boy
In 2 player games, is it the host's henchmen, or like one each (because that would be cool).
How are bots prioritized? If someone joins, does the third bot get booted first? What if my first slot is, say, Wolf, and he has the more important team boosts like Inspire, and another dude joins as Wolf? Would that player override Wolf or would it go down their preferred heisters list? Would this mean I should make my important bots the less popular characters?

I got so far and yet isn't enough to end the pain.
Anyone else having an issue where bots only use silenced pistols and smgs when given a shotgun?
It sounds like bots are actually useful for a change. I guess I have something to look forward to when I try this beta.
I just hope Overkill doesn't listen to anybody claiming they might be 'too powerful', because there are people who seem against buffing bots in any sort of way. And to that I would say "fuck off", because bots have been useless for far too long, it's about time they get some focus.
